Helping them to reclaim the role of Provider, Protector and Leader


At the Aligned Warrior, we coach me into becoming the Providers, Protectors and Leaders in their homes. We help men regain those things that they have forgotten because life has beaten them down so much. We teach men how to live like the men they are called to be. No matter where they are in life, or what their past looks like, every man can become that Provider, Protector and Leader again, or perhaps for the first time. Every man can be the warrior they need to be to successful fight the battles they face on a daily basis.
Through one-on-one coaching sessions and group sessions with other men who are in the exact same place, we walk you through the process of building, or rebuilding, and then putting your new life into action. Whether making tough decisions about the things that your family does, or you are building a system of emergency preparedness, you are standing up and leading. You are standing in the gap for your family by adopting a warrior mindset.
If you have had enough of the status quo, and you want to build a legacy that you and your family will be proud of, click the button below to schedule a free call with us to see if the program is right for you.
The Aligned Warrior Protocol is a six-month, two-phase program where you will start off in weekly sessions conducted online where we will start with where you are today and how you got here, followed by the building of your personal protection strategy. We use the avalogy of the military F.O.B. (forward operating base) and give you the tools needed to ensure you don’t end up back where you are. We identify the things in your life that don’t belong, or the things that don’t help you to be the man that you need to be. We’ll be journaling your progress and we’ll use some good books that you can take things from as you build your new life. Our sessions will follow the standard that “iron sharpens iron” and we are here to sharpen each other. You are NOT alone in this situation, or the process of rebuilding. No matter where you are now, you can get better. All it takes is the determination to commitment on your part.
Each person was created with a unique set of gifts and talents that make them who they are as individuals, and when you live your life in alignment with who you really are created to be, you find that your stress levels come way down. There is an inner peace knowing you are authentically you. There are no masks to pick out and put on. You are able to be transparent and real in a world full of fake. You are living truth. All men have daily battles to fight. When you are living an authentic life, aligned with those gifts and talents, you will be much more effective as a warrior. You will become the Aligned Warrior.
You didn’t just end up where you are today. It takes time to break down and end up in a place that you never thought you’d get to. Nobody gets married with the idea that they are just going to screw up their life and that of the people that they love. It happens over time because you allow small compromises to your integrity that you would not have otherwise. You start looking for something to fill a void. You fail to have boundaries. You rely on yourself and before you know it, you are someplace that you never thought you would be, doing things you know you should not, and you have no clue how to get out of it cleanly. Spoiler alert…there is no clean exit. You’re going to have to man-up and do it the right way.
What kind of legacy are you wanting to leave behind for your children? Let me ask you this more bluntly. If you look at your life, is the way you are living and the things that you are doing going to leave a legacy that you want your kids to follow? Are you proud of the things that you are doing and modeling for your children? If the answer is no, then what are YOU going to do about it? If you are like many men, you are embarrassed and even ashamed by the legacy you are on track to leave. But the good news is this…you can change that legacy with one decision, and you can take that first step today to laying the groundwork to leave a legacy you can be proud of.
David grew up in the Midwest spending as much time as possible outside doing what boys do. When he wasn’t out on the waters of the Great Lakes and rivers, David spent time learning about and preparing himself for service in the US Military, and he spent eight years as an Intelligence professional working with some of the most talented and elite forces on the planet. It was there that he developed a strong sense of discipline and a set of core values that he carried with him well into life outside the military.
But life outside of the military had a different set of challenges, and little by little David began to lose those core values and the discipline that had been with him for so long. Millions of miles in the air and nearly a thousand nights away from home took their toll, and wore him down little by little to the point he didn’t recognize himself, leading to his burn out and failure as a husband and father.
Faced with the reality of his situation David had a choice to make. End it all, or step up, man up, and say “no more” to the man that he had become. Through the grace and forgiveness of his wife and children, a few close friends and the power and love of God, David spent the next eight years rebuilding, and embracing those core values and discipline that he had once held near and dear.
David is married to his wife Arlene of thirty-one years, and together they have three children and two grandchildren. His mission in the lifetime that he has left is to help other men be restored to be the Providers, Protectors and Leaders they are called to be.
David’s philosophy is that most of the problems men face in their lives comes from a lack of leadership on their behalf. The strong disciplines and principles of leadership are often beaten out of men by the rigors of life. Even the strongest men will burn out and eventually end up in a situation they had never planned for if there are not appropriate boundaries in place...a set of non-negotiables. A creed. A set of core values. That was certainly the case in his own life. But it was that series of failures that set David on a journey into self-discovery and reflection on the principles that he used to hold firm, and it was the renewing of those principles and disciplines that have allowed him to emerge today as a stronger man, leader, husband and father.
